Is it correct?
1. In August, it was a main holiday season, and this caused an increase in sales of $170,000. Or "a main holiday season started, and this caused an increase in sales of $170,000" is better?

2. We had an advertising campaign.

3. We met a bad weather.

Would you tell me whether the sentences are correct?

Answer

Hi Joanna! 
Good questions. See my edits below:

1. You could use the phrase "high season" instead of "high holiday season" 
     -"High season was in August and this caused an increase in sales of $170,000." 
     -Or "August was the beginning of high season and this caused an increase in sales of $170,000."
     -Either of those would be acceptable. 
2. We had an advertising campaign. 
    -This sentence is perfect! 
3. "We had some bad weather," or "The weather was bad."
    -Either phrase would be acceptable!
